Currently looking for Titans and Demigods!!!

Attention!  It is my pleasure to announce that Elliquiy is now being subjected to the brainchild of the mind of Pixilicious.

Lately, we have been plagued with thoughts of an epic Greek Mythology game, involving the 14 Greek Gods and Goddesses (14 because we have learned that Homer couldn’t count properly!), selected Demigods, and of course the Titans.

The basic premise is that the Gods, and Demigods, live in modern day.  The Titans, that have been locked up for millennia have escaped and are trying to take over the world once more.  This is not to say that this is going to be strictly warring and feuding.  These are the Greek Gods!  There will be a lot of adult situations, deception and sexiness!  (This is an adult role play after all!)

As far as players go, we are looking for a few things:
•   Consistent posting
•   Literacy within posts
•   Basic knowledge of the God/Goddess/Titan/Demigod you wish to play (See Below)*


****NOTE: While you don't have to be myth experts, basic knowledge is expected, but we are happy to answer questions they have as long as they aren't asking for a full background of whatever person you are playing. ****

List of Appropriate Gods/Goddess Available


•   Dionysus



List of Titans Available

•   Phoebe
•   Themis
•   Asteria
•   Hecate
•   Helios
•   Leto
•   Styx
•   Pallas (M)
•   Astreaus (M)
•   Oceanus (M)
•   Rhea

List of Demigods Available

•   Orion
•   Orpheus
•   Clymene
•   Amphitrite
•   Maia (Hermes' mother)




If you have a persona in mind that you don't see listed in any of the above lists, please feel free to PM Pixilicious, and let her know which one you'd like to submit a profile for.  I have no problem considering characters that are not listed here! :D

If anyone thinks that they would be interested in participating in something like this, please post here in this thread indicating such.

If you know for sure that is something that you would like to participate in, please feel free to fill out a character biography and send it to Pixilicious VIA PM.  I am asking that each person submit at least two characters that they would like to play and we will select the best one for the story that we think fits with the vision we have for the game. The template for the character bio is as follows:

God/Goddess Name:
Modern Occupation:
Post-Greek Myth Background / What have you been doing these past thousands of years?
Connections to any other Greek deities:
Picture:


Once again, please PM your completed application to Pixilicious and allow 24-48 hours for an answer on approval.  Any further questions should be directed to Pixilicious as well.

Everyone that is considering joining has asked me about links to the game.  I figured I'd post them here, so those that are interested can see what the game is about so far:

Here are the links to all the game threads! :)

Of course. ;) 


Just to add a second notation of this, please don't be discouraged if you don't see your favorite God/Goddess, Demi-God/Goddess or Titan included in the list! 

Also, when submitting character profiles, please do remember to submit at least two different characters!

If I offend, my bad. Don't take it personal...

Having said that, this reads like what you'd get if Scion raped Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Is that correct? I could be interested. Not sure yet.

Not being familiar with Scion or Percy Jackson and the Olympians I can't really appropriately answer that. >.>

I'm familiar with both.  From what I read about the game so far, I'd say not really.  Both of those involve the offspring of gods.  The PCs in this case would be the gods themselves.  There are similarities in that they all involve the gods in a modernesque setting.  Am I correct in that, ladies?

I meant more in theme and setting than characterizations. Both games deal with modern day members of the Dodekatheon (to steal from Scion) dealing with the awakening and uprising of the progenitors to the Gods.

This looks like a lot of fun!

Sadly, while I might like to play as Demeter or Hera, I'm afraid that my knowledge of Greek Mythology is pretty limited. :/

Awesome idea, though!

That would be a negative.  I've read Percy Jackson.  I've browsed a little bit into Scion because of Hairy....Just...No.

If you are still accepting Id like to play Dionysus. He was the man. Id be happy to make up a character sheet if needed. Though it doesn't look like anyone else has that i can see.

Just going to post here to register my interest. It certainly sounds great, but I'll wait for your answer to my question(s) before I start making my character sheets. :)

Could you, perhaps, go into a bit more detail on the theme, tone, scope, and narrative direction of the concept then? Because- and maybe its just me being obtuse- but I'm not sure I understand quite what you're working towards, which sucks because... as I said above, it's interesting and I might be interested.

Not to be terribly rude myself but I'm going to be the one to flat out say, your approach to these questions comes off to even me as overly condescending and arrogant. I don't mean this to insult you, but to simply tell you the age old advice; Back it down a notch, chief.

Further, the theme: Greek Mythology. Wasn't entirely myth. Gods are still around today, shifting from their former lives as immortal deities to living amongst mortals, doing whatever they see fit.

Tone: Greek Mythology. There will be emotions, conflict, abuse, magic and all kinds of insanity present. The tone will probably bob between humor, tension and a spectrum of emotions.

Scope: Greek Mythology. The Pantheon are spread all over the world, all holding differing levels of power and the interpersonal relationship between the Immortals themselves are slightly compromised. And now the Titans are rising back up to do what the Titans usually do when they finally break out of their cages, roll up their sleeves and get back to breaking things.

And this is a roleplay, the narrative direction will probably be better fleshed out and explained once the interest check/sign ups are done and over with.

Starlequin

I believe this would be fun. Think I'll try to whip up a couple applications for a demi-god  or a Titan.

(Heh, I tried to resist, cuz I don't wanna spread myself too thin, but...Urgh! I need games like Gir needs tacos! Plus, the others  in my head wouldn't let us ignore the idea. And besides, IIRC I still owe the  delightful Miss Pixi a Grecian mythology game, don't i? ;)  )
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

Thank you, Starrie! *grins*  And yes, you do owe me one, so PM me your CS when you get it together. :)

As we aren't requiring anyone to have extensive knowledge of Greek Mythology (I've got enough Greek myth information in my head to fill a small library), I'd encourage you to submit for a character if you'd like to play.  There simply needs to be a willingness to research what you don't know about the characters and feel comfortable asking for clarifications or even answers to questions that you can't find.

Insert the rest here.

Verse, that was condescending and rude, and as one of the co-GMs, that is not an attitude I want to see again in the future for this game -- from you or anyone else. 

To use your own words: back it down a notch.  If you want to be helpful, then be helpful, but no one has the right to belittle another for asking a question.

(Yay double post.)

Thank you for the link, Hairy!  I feel a bit silly being a White Wolf fan and never having played nor read Scion before, but that actually does look interesting and would be fun to play!  Sadly not quite what we have in mind here, but pretty close.

Scion is probably my favourite RPG at the moment, and I'll happily bend your ear about it in PM if you like. Or on mumble again, for that matter.

If you have any access to the books, you might find some ideas worth stealing for your game :)

At first I was going to just pass this off as a bit of overaggression by a fan of the GMs or the game. Then I read...

The fact that one of the GMs of the game is so willing to rabidly lash out at a potential player without bothering to double check or clarify my intentions in my post... well. I've no interest in that sort of Forums behavior. Moirae, I appreciate your attempt to clean up the mess your co-GM made of simple questions, but between his tone and lack of legitimate, informed answers, I think I'll pass.

No hard feelings, I wish you folks the best of luck in this game, but I have no room in my life for the sort of drama that's already shown up.

I don't think anyone was rabidly lashed out against. I believe she was just doing her job as co-gm and insuring that no one was talked down against. If you were going to leave it then you should have just did so the extra comment wasn't needed. I'm sorry this roleplay wasn't what you were looking for but to not only put down the roleplay, but to put down one of the gm's as well that was unneeded. You will be missed. Maybe. I don't speak for anyone else.

I wasn't putting down Moirae. I was reacting to Verse's behavior. Though, it's been explained to me in detail over FPMs that Verse is not, in fact, a Co-GM; and that I misread a portion of Moirae's post. Sidenote for Moirae- I sorry about that, it's early here and I'm not 100% awake yet so I misunderstood your post.


KnightNelson20

So back to the rp though I've not been accepted yet and unsure if I will be as of yet. But was wondering, without a Zeus who will organize and lead the God forces. I would assume Hades seeing as He, Zeus, and Poseidon were brothers and were the three main gods being born of the titan Chronus. And with that being said is it safe to assume that Chronus will be leading the Titans. Though no one has been accepted for a Titan role i assume that will be made into NPC's to further the plot. Yes??

Phobetor

*Snickers*

Ya'll do NOT want Hades to run the place. Bad things will happen...VERY quickly.

I can't say I know for sure because the Girlfriend and Pixi are the ones who have been brainstorming this, but I would assume (and you know what they say about people who assume! ;) ) that if no one picks Zeus we might NPC him. Or who knows...maybe it'll add a plot twist to have Zeus murdered!

Zeus murdered!! That would be quite the issue. Unrest would rise among the Gods. Im sure Hades would be blamed. *laughs* I'd blame Hades so fast. Fighting between the Gods. Thats not new or anything. *laughs*

Phobetor

*Kicks rocks, pouting*

Why must Hades get blamed for everything? You know...maybe he found his inner Zen and he is at peace with himself!?

o_O
...Yeah...No...that's a lie...a horrible filthy lie...

Hades totally WOULD have had something to do with Zeus' murder.  >:)

What if Hades let the Titans loose so that in all the chaos he can take over. *epic music* His evil has no end. What a genius plot. I am quivering as we speak!

Ebb

I think Zeus faked his own death and is hiding out running a petting zoo in Omaha, sick of all of the celestial infighting.

Or maybe that's more of an Odin thing.

In any case, power vacuums always make good kickstarters.

You know, I came into the Group Requests to try and revamp my Camp Half-Blood game...then I see this. While I don't think the tone of this game is very Percy Jackson-ish, I feel intimidated. :P

I'm interested in Titans as well, but I need to read up a bit. I noticed you have Styx. Isn't that the river? Didn't know it was the name of a Titan?

Pixilicious

Styx was also the name of the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys. She was wife to Pallas and bore him Zelus, Nike, Kratos and Bia (and sometimes Eos). Styx supported Zeus in the Titanomachy where she was the first to rush to his aid. For this reason her name was given the honor of being a binding oath for the gods.

:)

I hope this helps, bubby!

So I was sent over to have a look at this. Will be submitting to characters shortly.

bubby

All righty. I was thinking Rhea, and now maybe Styx. Like I said I'll (obviously) need to research! Definitely interested in Titans though, and I'll PM my questions on the actual RP premise soon!

Character Update:

As Pixi and I were reviewing what characters have been submitted so far, we realized we want to wait until everyone has submitted character profiles before making the calls.  Interested players have until the Friday, April 29th to submit character profiles and we'll be announcing our decisions on Sunday, May 1st. 

Please note: There has been one character already selected as we made the decision on Nemesis before deciding to wait till the end of the week.

Character Update:

As Pixi and I were reviewing what characters have been submitted so far, we realized we want to wait until everyone has submitted character profiles before making the calls.  Interested players have until the Friday, April 29th to submit character profiles and we'll be announcing our decisions on Sunday, May 1st. 

Please note: There has been one character already selected as we made the decision on Nemesis before deciding to wait till the end of the week. 
Blast, it seems I may have found this game just a few days late to join.

Tell one your thoughts, but beware of two. All know what is known to three.
Thought for the week: Harden your soul against decadence, but do not despise it for the soft appearance of the decadent may be deceiving.

Okay, lovelies, here we go!  This is the character list as we have it.  Please refer to the notes for any immediate questions.

For those that submitted character profiles but don't see your name next to it, please remember we were looking strictly at the profiles.  There may have been something that didn't click with our vision of the game or a representation we felt was too straying from the history, despite that we're not expecting those characters to remain the same indefinitely.  For example, we'd rather see the character development than simply have a history; in some cases, witnessing that development is essential to the character.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Pixi.

Sweet Im accepted. As for playing both or one of my characters. I would only like to play Dionysus to begin with at least. Once I get a feel for the roleplay if my other character is still needed I'd be happy to take up that role!

Star Safyre

Congrats, all!  Looks like a nice line-up.  I can't wait to see how this pans out!

Sweet!

I would happily play both Titans, since the titans still seem to be undermanned...undertitaned?

I think it would be easiest if I concentrated on Iapetus as a main character to begin, with Coeus working in the background, to appear as necessary.

Let me know what you think - Co-Gm's of Godliness!

Cheers,
Xantham

I appreciate the approval but I fear that I might have to pull away from this wonderful rp. I will not know for a few days but I received a job offer after I applied to this game. It's a job that might have me away for weeks at a time. Just wanted to let you all know. Hopefully I can stay but my posts will be slow. :(

minerva7790

Whee~ Thanks for the approval, dear GMs! I was so worried my bio for Mnemosyne (whose name I still can't spell properly, and will hereafter be referred to as Syne) would not be right. But I suppose my guess about how the Titans were 'locked away' was right? :-X

Artemis: Congrats on the job offer! Hope you can stay though... :-(

Do you have a general timeline as to when you, and therefore we, will know the story into which we will be...thrust?

We're looking to start this week, though it certainly won't be till Wednesday at the soonest.  Pixi and I are going to be setting up threads, as well one for an "introduction" post for your character.  The introduction posts will more so be to have a better glimpse of your character rather than the short blurb of what they've been up to, how they've changed here and there, and will be entirely optional.

Worshipping Master,

While you pose a good idea, that's not the vision that the GMs had in mind for this game.  We'd much prefer sticking to Greek Mythology.

Thanks for your question, though!

Just so I can somewhat prepare, heh, I have a question.  Do you have an idea as to how long the Titans have been free of Tartarus?  This way I know how long I've been recently on earth.

My hubby might try to join this one as well, though he's not sure who he'll play yet.

God of mischief? That would have been fun. Alas he wasnt all that Greek, not that such a thing would matter to him :D

As a heads up, I have had to withdrawn completely from this game.  Unfortunately time and energy are against me in this matter, but I look forward to reading the adventures of these Gods, Goddesses and Titans.

Happy gaming, everyone!

I hope everything goes well for you, Moirae.

That being said... The Game will go on as planned.  *grins*

However, during this time, I'll be looking for someone to Co-GM this with me.  I, unfortunately, cannot GM a game this big by myself, although I have a great idea on how I want things to pan out from here.

If anyone is interested in helping me Co-GM, send me a PM and let me know! :)

I have a question about Achilles:

hes on the demigod list, which according to mythology is accurate, yet my question is how he fits into the story of this game: sure he is the greatest greek warrior to have ever lived and is invincible and all that but how does he fit into the current story?
“I fight for the men I have held in my arms, dying on foreign soil. I fight for their wives and children, whose names I heard whispered in their last breath. I fight for we few who did come home, only to find our country full of strangers wearing familiar faces. I fight so that all the fighting I've already done hasn't been for nothing, I fight: because I must.”

Updated the list of what we're looking for in the first post.  Just note that just because something is not there, doesn't mean we're not open to that character.  PM Pixilicious to discuss.
